Summary

A detailed chronology of the life, crimes and exploits of one of Jamaica's most notorious characters, Michael Christopher DUDUS Coke, the apparent heir to the notorious Shower Posse throne, until his dramatic toppling by law enforcement [2010] followed by his swift extradition to the United States where the charges brought against him range from drug smuggling to arms trafficking. The United States of America calls him one of the most dangerous drug dealers in the world-the leader of the shower posse; one of the world's most notorious gangs outside of Jamaica. Allegations are that he wears many hats:- Businessman, Community Leader, Political Activist, Don, Leader of the Shower Posse, Drug Dealer, Gun Runner, and the President himself ... To law enforcement he is a thorn, but to the people of West Kingston he is a saviour, and to the rest of Jamaica's garrisons, he is a symbol of hope. People have died for him, cried for him, protested for him - Neither his impact nor influence can be denied. But who is Michael Christopher 'Dudus' Coke? How did he become so powerful? How did he become the President? ...
